| HorizonXP | there are other probs, but those are minor in comparison my laptop gets REALLY hot... and I don't remember it being this hot in Windows XP |
| arkora | I am running linux 2.6.20-*14* on feisty, and need to install the old version 2.6.20-*13*. Where can I find these debs? They do not exist in the repositories anymore, and I have deleted my archive cache. Any ideas? |
| Qwell[] | If apt fails mid upgrade, am I completely screwed? The packages it was trying to upgrade aren't in the list anymore |
| toscano88 | arrow...for a while, it said that i didn't have anything selected for the root file system, but i did. i got past that and now it gets between 40% - 60 % and just freezes |
| soho | i want to start it while i login to gnome, but i always get an window opened where i have to check "tray" and the the icon is in tray. is there a way to directly put it to tray without the window? |
| gnomefreak | arkora: join #ubuntu+1 and ask |
| arrow | toscano88: did you look at this page? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UserDocumentation?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=dual+boot&titlesearch=Titles |
| Keneo | tommy1987, in dia you have to draw everything yourself, I would like to just create a class, add methods, and get it visual in uml |

| crimeboy | the feisty RC is out?! |
| mads__ | Anybody know how to reduce the power consumption when running Linux? ... I am travelling a lot and Windows on my laptop consumes far less power than linux ... |
| HorizonXP | YetiChick, it's installed and everything |
| gnomefreak | soho: join #ubuntu-effects and ask please |
| drewzf | Qwell[]: aptitude reinstall the packages |
| soho | gnomefreak; thanks |
| Qwell[] | drewzf: ...there were about 800 |

| drewzf | Qwell[]: ouch |
| gnomefreak | soho: yw |
| HorizonXP | Yetichick, but the laptop's temperature is very high, like close to 70C, and i don't remember it being this high in Windows XP |
| toscano88 | ok arrow. i'm going to look at that page. i'll be back |
| arkora | gnomefreak: thx |
| Qwell[] | whoever maintains the gnome packages needs to seriously learn how to actually manage packages |
| gnomefreak | arkora: yw |
| deefzi | why doesn't 'unrar x -r *.rar' extract all the .rar-files on directory, it says "extracting from (the first file)" but then "no files to extract" |
| jonah_ | reep, hi again, sorry was disconnected, is there a way to do this from prompt? |
| arrow | mads__ this is all I could find https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Fglrx_lowpower?highlight=%28power%29 |
| YetiChick | HorizonXP: I see. Unfortunately, I've never had a problem with laptop temperature. Not sure if I can help much. |
| Qwell[] | deefzi: recursively? If so, bash will be globbing the * in the current dir |
| YetiChick | HorizonXP: What kind of laptop is it? |
| PaulDev | deefzi: unrar x -r '*.rar' |
| twigathy_ | Hey all. Got a weird problem - Plugged in my external hard drive and it appears to be picked up as a floppy drive (Getting /dev/fd0) and leading to "Apr 12 15:57:24 Monkey kernel: [17938888.964000] end_request: I/O error, dev fd0, sector 0" errors in /var/log/messages....anyone got any ideas as to what may be wrong? |
| reep | jonah_: from a terminal you mean? I posted some commands earlier, but you didn't get them then? |
| HorizonXP | YetiChick: Dell Inspiron 8500 |
| PaulDev | deefzi: or just : unrar x '*.rar' |
| soho | gnomefreak; is there also a channel for encryption in ubuntu? |
| jonah_ | reep, sorry i didnt get them, dodgy internet connection |
| anhdepyeu | deefzi: try this: for f in *.r ; do unrar "${f}" ; done |
